Indiana Fever re-sign backup center who had season-ending injury. What we know
The Indiana Fever are re-signing Damiris Dantas, the team announced Sunday, continuing her run with the organization after she signed a two-year deal ahead of the 2024 season.
The length of her contract and salary are not yet known.
“We are very excited to welcome DD back to the Fever this season,” general manager Amber Cox said in a statement. “She is coming off another strong offseason overseas, and we are looking forward to her continuing to be a valuable contributor for us. In addition to everything she brings on the court, DD is a fantastic teammate, contributing to the special culture we want to continue to build.”
Dantas has not yet played a complete season with the Fever because of injuries and international commitments. Her contract was suspended for the first half of the 2024 season after she suffered a knee injury while playing overseas in Turkey. She ended up playing 20 games for the Fever after she was activated that July, averaging 4.5 points and 2.2 rebounds in 10 minutes per game.

Dantas then missed six games in the 2025 regular season while playing for Brazil in the FIBA AmeriCup Tournament in June and July. She played 38 regular-season games for the Fever, averaging 4.6 points and 2.4 rebounds in 11 minutes per game. She missed the entirety of Indiana’s postseason run to Game 5 of the WNBA semifinals, however, after she suffered a concussion in practice.
Dantas will likely keep a similar role as she has in the past two seasons for the Fever, backing up Aliyah Boston in the frontcourt. Caitlin Clark and Makayla Timpson were the other contracted players for the 2026-27 season prior to the offseason beginning.
